King of Hollywood Chapter 5: Film company

It would be lucky to have a friend like Claude. Adrian shrugged like this, greeted the waiter to continue the coffee and continued to write and draw on the notebook. He is drawing a split shot of his first movie. There are many small-cost high-box movies in his head, but no matter which one he has, the cost is low.

　　 He can actually go home to paint, but the original plan was to have dinner with Claude after meeting. But what this guy actually said to him: I don't want to go to dinner with a man alone! And before leaving, he ridiculed him: I really don't understand why you always like to meet in this small and broken cafe.

　　 **** guy, where is this cafe broken? Not only is it clean and tidy, the service attitude and the scenery outside are also good, besides, I haven't been here before... Adrian thinks a little about this cafe. Then he froze for a moment, then shook his head with a smile. The integration is really good, and after a few months it has been completely adapted, so it’s fine, without having to bear too much in the past.

　　 "Is this... your painting?" A voice rang beside.

　　Adrian raised his head, a sharp face appeared in front of his eyes, about 18 to 30 years old, very handsome and at the same time has a feeling of vicissitudes, I believe that this cafe has attracted many women and have Men with special hobbies. He stared at the painting in Adrian's hands without blinking, and he seemed attracted.

　　 "Any opinions?" Adrian asked curiously.

　　 "Oh, no, nothing," the other party responded immediately, filling him with coffee nervously, "Sorry, if I disturb you, I apologize, please don't... complain about me."

　　Adrian smiled and shook his head: "I won't, but, can you understand my painting?"

　　 "Yes, sir," the other person nodded. "Although the lines are simple, I can see that you are drawing a movie."

　　Unexpectedly, the Adrian that the other party really can see suddenly showed a surprised expression, and the youth immediately explained: "I have played a few small roles in some movies, so I can understand it roughly."

　　Adrian was even more surprised, and also got interested: "Then what do you see?"

　　 "Sorry, I just remembered some past events because of your split shot, not to see what." The other party said honestly, "I haven't reached the point where I can see a movie through such a simple split shot. Bad place."

　　 "Some past events? If you don't mind..." Adrian looked at his badge, "Mr. Knight, can you talk about it?"

　　 "Nothing to say, sir, I came to this city with a star dream when I was 16 years old four years ago, but four years later I could only work in a cafe to make a living." Knight's tone was full of Xiao Suo's feeling.

　　Adrian immediately showed a sudden look. Hollywood Vanity Fair attracted men and women who wanted to become famous overnight. It is a pity that one of the 100 people is called a signed actor. It is already very good, but more of them want to live part-time after the dream of this Dennis Knight is broken.

　　 However, Dennis's quality should be easy to get favored, right? Adrian suddenly narrowed his eyes. Although he directed a few small TV series before rebirth, but with so many movies he has seen, there are still people's eyes. Dennis is not particularly handsome, but has a distinctly angular personality; he is very malleable, especially since he is only 20 years old now. If it is to be described by a real person, it is similar to Brad Pitt.

　　Looking at his bleak expression, he obviously experienced something. Adrian shook his head secretly, perhaps out of curiosity or even joking at all. He blurted out and asked, "I am preparing for my first movie. I need someone with experience to play the role. Interested to try it? "

　　Deniston stopped while packing, looked at the Adrian, and then nodded: "No problem."

　　Adrian raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Are you worried about me being a liar?"

　　 "You don't look like a liar, sir," he said, shrugging, "What if it's that? It won't be worse than it is anyway, and you're not Gay."

　　 This guy... Fortunately, Adrian didn’t put coffee in his mouth, but then he became more interested in Dennis: "Then it’s so decided, this is my business card. In addition, take your Call me, I believe I will call you soon."

　　 He said, snapping his fingers, revealing an inscrutable smile: "You're in luck, kid. From now on, as long as I want, anyone can be regarded as an emperor superstar!"

　　 Raven Meyer hurriedly walked into the meeting room and sat down in his place, followed by glancing at his colleagues, although most of them were expressionless, but the sense of anxiety in the eyes could not be more obvious Too. He couldn't help sighing, and it's no wonder that the company was acquired and no one knows how the new boss will behave towards them.

　　Laffen was a bit sad to think of it here. He has been the general manager of this film company for almost 7 years, and it is difficult to accept the acquisition of the company emotionally. Although Bosworth Film Company was small, it was established in the 1960s, and has experienced ups and downs several times. If it is not the boss’s son who needs capital turnover after inheriting the company, how can this quite qualified movie be sold?

　　Following the footsteps, a young man in his 20s or 30s appeared with a smile at the entrance of the meeting room. The sharp lines and an indescribable softness made it rough. The face was a little more handsome.

　　 "Hello ladies and gentlemen, how are you." The young man made it to the top. "I am the new chairman of Bosworth Film Company, Adrian·Kewell. I know that everyone is very worried now, maybe I will make a big deal Some people will lose their jobs because of the reform. However, I am here to assure you that I will not interfere with the company’s business for at least half a year, nor will I easily dismiss any of the gentlemen or ladies present."

　　 is not sure how credible this is, and knows that the new boss has something to say next, but the people sitting, including Lavern, are slightly relieved.

　　 "However, in the next six months, I will inspect all of you here. As long as you can get my approval, I don’t mind raising your salary. Of course, if you can’t achieve it, you can only say regret." The new boss The words immediately made a few people feel nervous, and looked at the general manager La Verne.

　　Lafferne hesitated and was about to try a few sentences as everyone wanted, and Adrian's voice rang again: "That's the case today, Mr. Mayer stays, others please come back."

　　 Soon, there are only two people left in the meeting room, even if it is not big, it feels empty.

　　 "Mr. Lafferne Mayer-can I call you Laffer? Thank you." Adrian nodded with a smile, "I have read your information, you are an excellent general manager, if not because of this The wooden board of a company is too short, you can definitely make a career. If you can, can you tell me why you, who was Paramount’s assistant president seven years ago, suddenly resigned and left to work in such a small company? "

　　 "This world is not fair, Mr. Adrian." Lafferne shrugged without saying much. He believed that since the other party had read his information, he must have some understanding of his experience in Paramount, "As for why I went to Bosworth Films and stayed for 7 years. It was because my father and old Bosworth had some friendships-are you satisfied with this answer?"

　　 "Very satisfied," Adrian laughed, "Okay, Laffer, don’t worry, I said that if I ask the company’s business within half a year, it will definitely be done."

　　 "If you can, can you tell me your plan, Mr. Adrian?" Raven asked.

　　Adrian stared at him for a few seconds, then smiled slightly: "It’s very simple, I will go to the UK to make a small-cost film director, I plan to complete the shooting and post-production within 2 months, and then send it in August Participated in the Venice Film Festival, so you have to help me arrange some people who are familiar with the business."

　　 "Sorry, you mean..." Lavern looked at Adrian in disbelief. He did not expect that the new boss would actually like to make a director's movie by himself~IndoMTL.com~ You heard it right, "Adrian Nodded vigorously, "I will direct and produce a B-class film with a cost of not more than $200,000 in two months, and then send it to Venice for exhibition. And, although this is my first time as a director and producer, I believe the box office of this film will definitely be hundreds of times the cost. "

　　 "It sounds...very good." Lafferne rubbed his head and said with a wry smile.

　　 "I know it's hard for you to accept empty-spoken vernacular, but you will see the facts in two months, Lavern." Adrian smiled and spread his hands, "I will tell you a little more, I will soon The company's first capital injection, the acquisition of Bosworth Films is just the beginning."

　　 Laffern did not speak, just quietly watched Adrian waiting for his following.

　　 "You are a smart person, Lavern, I need the help of smart people," Adrian sits up straight, "I hope you can guarantee the normal operation of the company in this half year, especially those networks. "

　　The general manager doesn’t believe the new boss’s big words. He has been in this business for more than ten years, and no one has seen him. But from the last sentence he still heard the other party's ambition, and the confidence revealed in the language could not be ignored. So after pondering for a few seconds, La Verne stood up and nodded: "Happy to serve you, sir."

　　 "Very good, so be it." Adrian knocked on the table, and suddenly remembered something, "Yes, in addition, you can make a report of the script submitted to the editorial team, and list it in the table of contents and introduction every week. Give me a look."

　　Here he laughed: "Don't worry, I just have some experience in screenwriting. I just bought four scripts, and two of them are waiting to be sold."
